Lafiel knew it she could feel it within her stirring she focused her green eyes upon the table and then her PDA just as the first tear ran down her face. He was her friend he was meant to be her friend it wasn't meant to be like this. Why why had he done this he was meant to be her friend, she had even accepted him as her guard at one time, he wasn't meant to be like the joker. Yet even the joker had excuses he was insane an had just not perceived Lafiel as a threat or so Oliver had said explaining how she had been lucky with such interactions. This was different Dangen knew conciously what he was doing he had attacked Bretonian's and disregarded their own authority in their own realm. Had he even been a friend at all then was he just using me attacking the weakest link what was his purpose to draw her in as a friend then destroy that which she loved once he had what he wanted.
She turned to Oliver her voice soft the hidden emotion lay just beneath the surface but it was clear to be heard for those that heard her whispered words, "Uncle could you please comb my hair there doesn't appear to be a mirror around and I am not sure were the bathroom is in this establishment." Oliver gave her a side long glance that said it all it was cold and mechanical there was no warmth in it the no was clearly evident he obviously felt it not an apropriate time or place. It was Lafiel that could only see the true emotion that lay beneath the depths of the facade there was at least a spark of fire that needed to reach out to her a paternal instinct maybe as one would look at a child or maybe it was that Oliver did indeed love his niece for all he was allowed to get close to the charge he guarded. Lafiel just place her hands in her lap looking at the ground.
"I'll do that for you kiddo." A warm voice said from behind Lafiel making her jump with surprise as Sophia Tarrant spoke. Lafiel turned around in time to see Sophia pulling up another chair to the table placing herself inbetween Oliver and Lafiel. Lafiel's expression had been grim from brooding as she regarded her older twin who wore an armed forces uniform the little metal emblem clipped to her collar denoting her rank of captain. Sophia was almost identical to Lafiel the only major difference between them was their height Sophia stood a lot taller than Lafiel yet there was also a few noticable differences in Sophia's face her features were a lot sharper and pronounced to Lafiel's softer innocent looks. To Lafiel's innocence and kindness Sophia emanated strengh and command just like their father. Sophia could be mistaken as sometimes being far to reserved yet for all that she may not openly display her emotions and appeared to be withdrawn she was held in great respect were ever she went for her abilities as a captain. Unlike Lafiel who had decided to follow in their mothers footsteps and join the foreign office and a government career, Sophia had followed their father and joined the armed forces though this hadn't been known till the family had been truely reunited after the accident.
Sophia gestured to her sister and Lafiel came over with the comb in her hand sitting on her lap almost like a child would she was innocent to the opinions around her. Sophia took the comb and began running it through Lafiel's golden hair. It would have been an amazing spectacle for Sophia's crew on the destroyer she commanded to have seen this phenomenon it might very well have shocked them to see that under all the outer exterior Sophia was a kind loving human being with a warm heart that did infact hang up the captains coat when off duty. Sophia gazed around the room surreticiously while focusing on her sister she noticed the off duty officers from the BPA, Christy behind the counter and Dangen about to leave. Sophia just nodded at Dangen who she had known from various records as well as from her sisters accounts of him, she even thought she might of seen him at Lafiel's party though he looked a lot different to his picture on the file labeled Christopher Dangen Order Commodore which had been strange as the file had only recently been made.
It took her a moment to realise something was up the stiffness in the air the BPA officers were tense one officer in particular a superintendent by the looks had his pistol ready to be drawn from its holster. Sophia let out a small sigh steeling herself ready to draw her own hand guns, Lafiel hadn't said anything to her about there being a room full of gun tottering maniacs on the verge of drawing and getting people killed. Even Oliver looked adjetated which wasn't a very good sign at all. Sophia smiled to herself was Comander Silsbury going to commit treason and attempt to kill her sister and Oliver before staging a coupe in New London. The thought did amuse Sophia as she wasn't entirely sure either Lafiel or herself could die. In addition that was all that Bretonnia needed a second civil war and for the armed forces to be distracted a second time there would be no recover for it to happen again she shrugged off the thoughts as she decided Silsbury wouldnt be quite that stupid. When she noticed that Lafiel's face glistened and the trail were tears had once flowed were present.
"My sister why do you cry are you alright." Sophia asked placing down the comb on the table. Lafiel looked up into her sisters green eyes her voice was inconsistent as it struggled with the sadness and pain within dancing even with hints of anger the rarest emotion to ever cross Lafiel's mind, "I realise on this day and on the many days since I have known Dangen that I am played fool and am far too blind to see with my eyes that which is before me. That I disarmed my true protectors and guides to stay their hand when I should have let them take me from harms way for truely I must be a weak link. Dangen has used me and I am decieved for it is obvious that what ever information or thing that he required he has now gotten and that I could only be a weak link and become his tool to which to aquire his means to an end. For it is clear that he is of no friend an that his purpose must of been in fact ill for he openly disregards and attacks ones people to which one loves, and serves who's duty it is of mine to protect such people. To which I have cast them unto the flames for being that mans pawn. See you not the report of his attack upon the armed forces and upon civilians whom commanded him to not enter into Omega 49 it is clear he has no love for mankind or respect for life for many lives could have been killed an it is not his place to command authority of a foreign realm but respect it." Lafiel gestured it hurt her as she did at Dangen openly.
Lafiel suddenly felt the urge to run upto Christopher Dangen an not let him go for it was all wrong and should she be able to make her friend see clearly again that it would be in his best interest for it truely cut deep to see a friend go. It truely was in her innocence that made her do what she did completely unaware of the danger she was in by getting close to this rogue order operative or the fact that most people in the little pastry shop seemed to be very trigger itchey and all carried armaments of some sort. Lafiel got up quickly side stepping before Oliver could react and was to far away now for her sister to intervene.
Lafiel gracefully walked upto Christopher suddenly intercepting him both her petite hand placed upon his shoulders as she gently shook him she spoke her voice a mixture of emotion, "Were you ever truely ones friend or have you always been of ill and malicious intent to decieve and use me for your own ill meaning agenda and to destroy that which I love once you had what you had what you wanted." This time the tears didn't stop and for all the presence of her sister was a pillar of strengh from which she drew it was not the monolith that was their father. Lafiel shook him harder enough for his hood to fall back as she continued, "Why why why why! Why did you do this all! Am I truely that blind and you that evil, do you truely hate all of human kind that much! To throw all that is good in this world away is it truely worth it to go down this path? Her heart despaired as her emotions were a whirlpool she suddenly couldn't stand touching him it was like touching fire it sent her head spining but she endured the whirlpool inside of her.
